• You cannot pause manually during synchro-
recording.
• When there is no sound from the player for
more than 3 seconds during synchro-
recording, the recorder goes into the standby
mode automatically (page 53). When the
sound comes from the player again, the
recorder resumes synchro-recording. If the
recorder is kept in the standby mode for 5
minutes or longer, the recorder stops
automatically.
Notes
• Do not switch the SYNCHRO REC switch
after step 3. Recording may not be done
properly.
• The recording mode setting (stereo, LP2
stereo, LP4 stereo, or monaural) cannot be
changed during synchro-recording.
• Even when there is no recorded sound on the
sound source (page 53), there may be cases
when recording does not pause automatically
during synchro-recording due to the noise
level emitted from the sound source.
• If a silent portion is encountered for 2 seconds
or more during synchro-recording, a new track
mark is automatically added at the point
where the silent portion ends (page 53).
• Synchro-recording cannot be done if the
connecting cord is not an optical cable, or if
the cable is connected to the MIC (PLUG IN
POWER) jack.
• You cannot change the recording mode during
recording.
